Is 7000 the new 10,000? new study says fewer steps still cut disease and dementia risk

If walking 10000 steps daily feels daunting, start with just 7000. Even 2000 steps is a good to begin with. As per a global review walking 7000 steps a day may be just as beneficial as the classic 10,000 step goal. The study says risk of death, dementia, and chronic illness drops shortly, especially between 2000 and 7000 steps. The message is clear, progress, and not perfection, keeps you alive and well.
